It’s an opportunity to showcase our cricket skills and passion
Northern Power Cricket Club has been a massive supporter of women’s cricket and being a part of Pink Stumps Day was a chance to raise awareness and funds for those going through breast cancer. Kelly Jolley, a player on their women’s team also added, “It is also an opportunity to showcase our cricket skills and passion to the men of the club, family and friends!”
Emmaus Christian School
When Emmaus Christian School teacher Ms O’Connell was diagnosed with breast cancer, it was felt deeply through the whole community. Ms O’Connell is a beloved teacher who had been teaching at the school from primary to Year 10 for many years, when she was diagnosed with stage 3 breast cancer in April 2022.
North Kalgoorlie Cricket Club
The third annual Pink Stumps Day event took place on the 18th of February 2023, and what a day it was for the Kalgoorlie- Boulder community. A hot and balmy 37 degree and the side of the cricket oval was a sea of pink. Roughly 60 local women came out to watch the Eastern Goldfields Cricket Association A-grade competition.

The pinkest on the pitch
Why fundraise?
For 20 years, we’ve given our all to breast cancer. Now we’re taking our care to all cancer. And we need your help to do it.
Since 2005, we’ve supported over 150,000 people and their families, for free. With 1 in 2 people in Australia at risk of being diagnosed with cancer, we need more McGrath Cancer Care Nurses in communities across Australia.
We’re asking you to grab your mates, your mum and your boss to pitch up, pink up and have a go at fundraising. So that no one misses out on care.
